tone was as confident as that of the
Berlin newspapers of this week.
They describe Confederate success
es here and there, in the Carolinas,
in the Valley of Virginia'. President
Davis and the Confederate Congress
had been quarreling bitterly; dui
proclamations and addresses, official
ly issued, declared stern determina
tion to continue the war until the
Southern states were victorious and
had attained independence. The en
listment of negro troops had begun
and hones of ereat accession of
strength from this means seem to
have been high. General Lee, how
ever, was sending out urgent appeals
to the public for food and other sup
plies for his troops. The people of
the Confederacy had adopted for
themselves methods of economizing
tal of 1,858 for the day. This num
ber represents the actual number
who signed convert's cards, though
it represents only, a portion of those
who came down and shook his hand.
The number of converts for" the 11
weeks of the campaign totals 41,724.
So far as results go, the country has
never seen anything like it. It not
only beats Billy Sunday's records,
but that of every modern evangelist.
So much for the figures. The tab
ernacle forgot them today. The
workers forgot to count in the whirl
and hubdub of the farewells, the
ovations and greetings that these
60,000 persons heaped upon the lit
tle revivalist who arrived here some
80 days ago.
Four audiences went wild at his
first appearance and four audiences
stubbornly refused to leave the tab
ernacle until the evangelist himself
and preserving the food supply- left the Platform. Eleven weeks had
something like those being enforced
by the German government.
It is interesting to contrast these
conditions on one side with the opin
ion and expectations of those on the
other side in position to know, as re
vealed by the confidential and offi
cial dispatches and letters as we find
them in the official records of "The
War of the Rebellion." The North
ern commanders were absolutely and
calmly sure that the Confederacy
would collapse within two months,
just as the English now are betting
even at Lloyd's that peace will be
established by the first of June.

Men and women pulled down signs
from the tabernacle posts and car

big handfuls of sawdust from the
shadow of the pulpit, filled their
pockets and their handkerchiefs
with it and carried it home. They

They are up in arms over "his recerif
ruling, the. effect of which, they ar
gue, is to impose a tax on govern
ment employes for living with their
wives. It is the duty of Judge Dow
ney to pass upon all expense ac
counts submitted by government of
ficials incurred duringvthe discharge
of their official duties while absent
from Washington.
Judge Downey ruling in the case
of Delmar C. Stuttler, an examiner
in the department of justice, has
stirred up all the trouble. Stuttler
was sent to Charleston, W. Va., on
January 5. He occupied a room
alone at the hotel until January 14.
For the use of this room he paid $2
a day. On January 22, Mrs. Stuttler
reached Charleston, registered, and
occupied the same rdom at the hotel
with her husband, until January 25.
For the use of this room Mrs. Stut
tler agreed to pay $1.50 a day. Stut
tier paid the hotel $3.50 a day for
each of four days and claimed reim
bursement for $2 for each day. He
was allowed but $1.75 for each day,
being one-half the amount actually
paid.
"I cannot grant the force of an ar
gument that such a holding is im
posing a tax on a government em
ployee for living with his wife," says
the comptroller. "The government
is concerned only with the payment
of the proper expenses incurred by
its employees. I am not called upon
to decide the question which mfghr
have been presented had the hotel
bill in this case been . rendered
against the husband for $2 h day.
The bill was rendered for $3.50 a
day for the ioint occupancy of the
room, and there is no basis for the
conclusion that the husband actually
incurred for himself an expense in
excess of one-half that amount. And
when there is joint occupancy of a
room it must be assumed that the
expense is properly to be dividid
equally.

Not Missing a Tiling.
Making an address recently, Con
gressman Victor Murdock, of Kan
sas, referred to the subject of nerve
and told this story as a striking example:
"Some time ago an old Indian in
the West broke his ax handle, and a
farmer, taking pity on him, fitted the
tool with a new one from his own
supply. Then, noticing that the ay
was very dull, Uncle Josh decided
to add- to the beautiful heart busi
ness by sharpening it. To this end
he asked the Indian to turn the
grindstone.
" 'Well, what is it?' wonderingly
asked the farmer, noticing that the
Indian persisted in hanging around
after the job was done. "Is there
anything else you want?'
" 'Yes, sir,' was the prompt rejoin
der of the Indian. 'You no pay me.
" 'Not pay you!' exclaimed the
farmer,' with a perplexed expression.
'Not pay you for what?'
" 'For turn the grindstone,' calm
ly answered the chief. 'Twenty-five
cents.' " '
